405 Raw Water Pump
Does anyone know if a remote belt driven raw water pump is available for the Cummins 5.9 BT6 Diesel engine.
I have no trouble changing the starboard engine pump but cannot get to the port engine pump on my 405, just not enough space between engine and fuel tank. Have thought of squeezing under the engine from the front but don't know if I will ever get out.
Would be grateful for any help.

Re: 405 Raw Water Pump
I have noticed fixings holes in the block near the fuel manifold, if I source a belt driven pump and mount it on a bracket here and change the crank belt pulley for a double unit might be able to drive it from there. I will speak to Sherwood as you suggest.
Also can't believe you have to raise the engine on the mounts to remove the pump.

Im 6'4 and 240+ lbs. I had no trouble getting in there. Getting out was a problem when my legs turned to jelly from all the cramps.
